Find Max Value After Odata Query & Insert

Thats basically correct if you Don't run premium. There's another alternative, but I doubt that it will cover your request: https://www.thebiccountant.com/2017/01/11/incremental-load-in-powerbi-using-dax-union/
Exactly that Greg, I am trying to run incremental updates via Odata...Odata v4 supports filtered query, but I need to update based on the current recordset. My Power Query is not my strongest area of Power BI
Yeah, mine neither! That's why I always call in the calvary with ImkeF! See's a Power Query supra genius!

Hi,
please check this article: https://www.thebiccountant.com/2016/02/09/how-to-create-a-load-history-or-load-log-in-power-query-or-power-bi/
Meanwhile you can also use Python-script to export if you prefer that: https://www.thebiccountant.com/2018/12/29/export-data-from-power-bi-to-csv-using-python/

ImkeFthanks for the input
So am I right in thinking that irrespective of whether the odata source can accept a filter that PowerBI always drops the recordset? Therefore incremental builds can only be achieved as you mentioned by moving the data out to CSV first?
